This week in Rm 138

Today we started the day learning a new letter and word of the week.  Our letter and word of the week is "I".  We buttered "I" in our poem and then talked about how it is always an uppercase letter when it is on it's own in a story.   We also learned that a lot of our classmates have an "i" in their name.   The word "vowel" came up and we sang a special song! Ask your child to sing our vowel song to you!

The sk students then had an opportunity to write in their journals.   They did an amazing job sounding out "i" words and even sentences with "I" in it.

Please continue to point out our popcorn words during your nightly reading time.  They are all very excited and proud to find them in the books at school!
